I got to Reifel today - my first visit since the bridge re-opened.
The birding was fairly
normal with respect to species - notable miss was Northern Harrier which
is usually
seen there.
The biggest difference was several small flocks of ducklings and one
group of goslings -
whose parents brought them right to anyone walking the trail. In fact,
the Mallards and
Canada Geese were all very acommodating/coming right to you.
Good long, close looks at Wood Ducks. Lots of Red-winged Blackbirds,
Marsh Wrens
(mostly heard but not seen), and a few sparrows, Towhees, and robins.
One Bald Eagle,
two Great Blue Herons.
